Chapter 99

“Listen carefully. Your opponent is the murderer Kim Baek-hun’s spirit possessing Yang Hak-soo, a master swordsman wielding dual short swords. Don’t think about half-heartedly extracting the ghost from his body and banishing it. Attack with the mindset that you might have to kill Yang Hak-soo.”
Director Cha Jun-ho spoke those final words.
Kekekekekekek—
Even as he spoke, Yang Hak-soo’s manager continued to emit that bizarre laughter.
“K-kill the manager? You’re saying we might have to kill him?”
Yerim asked in shock.
“If you treat this half-heartedly, you might die first.”
Director Cha Jun-ho spoke with grim resolve.
It was at that very moment.
Whoooooosh—
An intensely frigid wind swept across the entire corridor, and Yang Hak-soo’s manager appeared instantly before Director Cha Jun-ho’s face.
He immediately swung his sword at him.
Clang—!!
Director Cha Jun-ho blocked the blade with his rifle.
Then Yang Hak-soo’s manager tried to stab his abdomen with the short sword in his other hand.
In that instant, he displayed quick thinking and delivered a powerful downward kick to Yang Hak-soo’s manager’s knee.
Thud—
But Yang Hak-soo’s manager continued to smile, emanating killing intent.
Then Ji-seok, who was behind them, hurled a talisman.
Whoosh—
The talisman spun rapidly as it flew toward Yang Hak-soo’s manager’s face, but he casually turned his head and evaded it.
Snap—
The stiff, card-like talisman grazed past his cheek.
Immediately after, he pivoted his body and swung his sword at Ji-seok, who stood behind Director Cha Jun-ho.
The movements were so elegant they resembled a sword dance—graceful yet swift and controlled.
Crash—
Ji-seok had no weapon to block that blade.
Tae-woo extended his ghost-slaying sword forward, blocking Yang Hak-soo’s manager’s blade instead.
Then he attempted to quickly slash the middle section with the short sword in his other hand.
Whoooosh—
A long gash opened along Ji-seok’s side, and blood poured out.
“Ugh!”
As Ji-seok clutched his side and retreated, Yang Hak-soo’s manager raised his sword with even greater force to press the attack.
Tae-woo stepped forward and pushed him back with his body.
Whoooosh—
Yang Hak-soo’s manager stepped back, smoothly rolled over Tae-woo’s back, and immediately swung his sword vertically at Yerim.
Yerim threw herself backward and pulled the trigger.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The bullets flew, but Yang Hak-soo deflected them with the short sword in his other hand.
Then he spun around and swung his blade toward Tae-woo.
Clang—
After Tae-woo parried the sword and attempted a counterattack, Yang Hak-soo suddenly retreated.
In that instant, Cha Jun-ho fired at him.
Bang bang bang bang—
Yang Hak-soo lowered his stance and charged directly toward Yerim.
His speed was extraordinary.
Thud thud thud thud—
Cha Jun-ho’s bullets embedded themselves in the wall.
In that span, Yang Hak-soo reached Yerim’s face and thrust his blade forward.
She had no time to assume a defensive posture—she was about to be struck.
But in that very moment—
Clang—!!!
Tae-woo appeared behind Yang Hak-soo in an instant and knocked his sword upward.
Then he immediately slashed horizontally at Yang Hak-soo’s ribs.
Ting—!!
Yang Hak-soo blocked with the short sword in his other hand, then immediately drove the sword that had been knocked upward down toward Tae-woo.
Whoosh—
Tae-woo twisted his body to evade.
The sharp blade of the short sword grazed past Tae-woo’s nose.
Tae-woo immediately spun and shoved Yang Hak-soo forcefully with his shoulder.
Thud—
As Yang Hak-soo was driven backward, Tae-woo stepped back as well, then swung his blade powerfully toward him.
Boom—
Sword energy erupted, cleaving the guest room door in half and pouring inside.
Crash—
Yang Hak-soo crossed both short swords to block Tae-woo’s attack, then was driven into the guest room.
Then silence fell.
Whoosh—
As dust swirled in the air, Yerim swallowed hard.
In an incredibly brief span of time, Yang Hak-soo had attacked Cha Jun-ho, Ji-seok, Tae-woo, and Yerim in rapid succession.
Throughout it all, Tae-woo had not only defended against his attacks but had managed counterattacks as well.
The thought flashed through her mind that this was a battle she could not possibly intervene in.
“Ugh—!”
Ji-seok leaned against the wall and groaned.
The wound on his abdomen appeared more serious than expected.
“Lee Manager. Look after the director.”
Director Cha Jun-ho walked toward Tae-woo and spoke quietly.
“Yes, yes!”
Yerim immediately rushed to Ji-seok and helped him to his feet.
In that moment.
Tae-woo drew his pistol and fired at Yang Hak-soo.
Bang bang bang bang—
Simultaneously, Yang Hak-soo deflected all the bullets with his twin short swords and charged at Tae-woo.
“Haaah!”
Tae-woo also drew his blade and rushed forward, bringing it down with tremendous force.
Claaaang—!!
Yang Hak-soo’s twin short swords clashed against Tae-woo’s curved blade.
A deafening metallic screech that seemed to tear eardrums apart erupted, and a shockwave rippled outward in all directions.
Director Cha Jun-ho shielded his face with his arm momentarily, then took aim at Yang Hak-soo.
In an instant, Yang Hak-soo noticed the line of fire and immediately retreated.
Rat-a-tat-tat-tat—
Tae-woo pressed forward into the guest room, their blades still locked together.
“Damn it!”
Director Cha Jun-ho pursued him inside and raised his gun again.
But with Tae-woo blocking his line of fire, he couldn’t pull the trigger immediately.
Clang— clang— ting— ting-ting— ting—!
Tae-woo and Yang Hak-soo exchanged blows in rapid succession.
It was a deadlock—neither gaining nor losing ground.
In the process, the television, desk, vanity, and mirror in the guest room shattered and broke apart.
Crash—
Yang Hak-soo’s short sword grazed just past Tae-woo’s ribs.
Tae-woo twisted his body in alarm, and the blade nicked his formal suit before passing by. Seizing the opening, he brought his sword down diagonally with tremendous force.
Claaang—!!
Yang Hak-soo blocked Tae-woo’s blade with the short sword in his remaining hand.
But Tae-woo’s strength was overwhelming.
Yang Hak-soo’s blade was driven back forcefully.
Thud—
Ultimately, Tae-woo’s sword grazed Yang Hak-soo’s shoulder.
Blood began to flow from the wound.

Sssssssssssssssss—

As their faces drew close, Yang Hak-soo made rapid lip movements, producing an eerie, ghostly sound.
“What are you saying!”
Tae-woo didn’t even wait for the translation coming through his smart glasses before he cried out and headbutted Yang Hak-soo’s face.
Crack—
Blood erupted from Yang Hak-soo’s nose.
Tae-woo quickly retreated, then delivered a spinning heel kick that struck Yang Hak-soo’s head with tremendous force.
Crack—
At the same moment, Yang Hak-soo’s body spun several times before crashing into the broken TV hanging on the wall.
Thud—crash—
Collapsed on the floor, Yang Hak-soo twisted his body grotesquely and tried to rise again.
But Tae-woo didn’t allow it.
Crack—
He reversed his grip on the blade and struck Yang Hak-soo’s back hard with the flat of the sword.
Thump—
Yang Hak-soo collapsed limply to the floor, seemingly unconscious.
Tae-woo aimed his sword at Yang Hak-soo while looking toward Cha Jun-ho.
Cha Jun-ho was also pointing his gun at the fallen Yang Hak-soo.
“Go.”
He nodded and spoke quietly.
Tae-woo quickly slipped out of the guest room.
Cha Jun-ho approached Yang Hak-soo slowly, his expression tense.
If Kim Baek-hun didn’t emerge, he was planning to restrain Yang Hak-soo and take him to the Incineration Team.
That was precisely when it happened.
Tap—
Still lying down, Yang Hak-soo suddenly raised his arm and knocked Cha Jun-ho’s gun barrel aside.
Bang—
The bullet flew past Yang Hak-soo’s face and embedded itself in the wall.
Simultaneously, Yang Hak-soo sprang to his feet and shoved Cha Jun-ho hard.
Thud!
Cha Jun-ho was suddenly driven backward down the corridor and slammed against the wall.
Then Yang Hak-soo charged at him with a short sword, aiming for his throat.
It was at that moment.
A variable emerged.
Zap—bzzzzzzzzzzzz—
Ji-seok, supported by Yerim, fired a taser gun at the charging Yang Hak-soo.
Yang Hak-soo’s body instantly stiffened like a log, and he crashed to the floor with a thud.
Cha Jun-ho gave Ji-seok a thumbs up, then created some distance between himself and Yang Hak-soo.
Tae-woo also aimed his sword, thinking Yang Hak-soo might rise again.
Beep—
Then, the blue dot on the Ghost Radar disappeared.
The ghost that had been possessing Yang Hak-soo suddenly vanished without a trace.
At that alert sound, Yerim asked.
“What is it?”
“The ghost signal disappeared.”
Tae-woo answered.
But they couldn’t let their guard down.
The ghost could be hiding deep within the possessed person’s consciousness.
In fact, when ghosts hid that way, they could sense them through spiritual intuition, but the Ghost Radar would show them as disappeared—something they’d experienced before.
The likelihood of that being the case now was high.
Several minutes passed like that.
“Ugh.”
Yang Hak-soo slowly pushed himself up.
“Ow. My body hurts.”
He touched his bleeding shoulder, his throbbing chest, and his face as he looked around.
Then he saw Director Cha Jun-ho and his expression turned puzzled.
“Huh? Director. Why are you here? Where are Director Moon and Phil-ho?”
He appeared to remember nothing.
“….”
Director Cha Jun-ho said nothing and only pointed his gun at him, so Yang Hak-soo furrowed his brow and looked between Ji-seok, Yerim, and Tae-woo in turn.
Then he bit his lower lip hard.
“Damn it. Was I possessed?”
Yang Hak-soo asked.
Director Cha Jun-ho quietly nodded.
“Is it still inside me?”
He asked further.
“Sorry, Manager Yang. Let’s go to the Incineration Team. From what I can tell, that thing inside you won’t come out easily. Let’s go to the Incineration Team and extract it.”
Director Cha Jun-ho pulled out handcuffs and tossed them in front of Yang Hak-soo.
Yang Hak-soo stared at the handcuffs for a moment, then silently picked them up.
He understood the situation better than anyone else right now.
Click—click—
He fastened the handcuffs on his own wrists.
“…What happened to Director Moon and Phil-ho? Were they hurt because of me?”
“We’ll talk about the details at the Company.”
He asked, but Director Cha Jun-ho avoided giving a direct answer.
Then he immediately gestured to Ji-seok with his chin.
Thud-thud—
Ji-seok approached Yang Hak-soo while pulling out talismans.
“Manager Bang. What are you doing? Why is your stomach like that? Are you hurt?”
Yang Hak-soo looked at Ji-seok with a cautious expression.
“If the ghost inside you escapes during transport, it will be problematic. I’m going to seal it so the ghost can’t flee from your body.”
“What?”
The moment he questioned back, Ji-seok slapped a seal talisman onto Yang Hak-soo’s forehead.
“Gaack!”
Yang Hak-soo’s head snapped backward violently, and he let out a groan.
Ji-seok didn’t stop, pressing seal talismans across his body.
“Gaack! Gaack!”
Yang Hak-soo convulsed as if suffocating, then collapsed.
Director Cha Jun-ho trained his gun on the fallen man while watching Ji-seok.
“Kim Baek-hun inside will start thrashing violently.”
Ji-seok said quietly.
The moment his words ended, Yang Hak-soo’s body arched like a bow, thrashing like a fish out of water.

Kyaaaaaaaa—

Simultaneously, he twisted his body while emitting grotesque sounds.
With the seal talismans applied, the spirit of Kim Baek-hun trapped inside Yang Hak-soo’s body was thrashing desperately.
But bound by the specially crafted restraints and covered with talismans, it couldn’t escape.
“Let’s take him.”
At Director Cha Jun-ho’s command, Tae-woo approached and grabbed Yang Hak-soo.
The two of them began dragging his convulsing form forward.
